Yes, sir.
Thank you very much for inviting us here today. I appreciate very much the vocal and evident support for the Canadian Forces from the members of the committee. Also, although it might sound strange, I actually welcome the Auditor General's return to come and check up on us to see how we've done with the numerous investments and initiatives that are in place today. We'll continue to invest and put into place other initiatives in the near future. I think they will see a very positive result as an outcome.
These are very trying times in the Canadian Forces with the mission in Afghanistan, while at the same time we are transforming and we are also growing. That has put a lot of pressure on all of the individuals in uniform, and I thank you again for your support.
